→ Could someone please explain, without using illustrative icons, the icons people are using with red scribbles around the mouth, black scribbles around the eyes, and the words "ha ha ha" scribbled somewhere on the icon. I'm not getting it and they are seriously fugly. (Thank you elise_509!)

→ I, ahem, obtained She & Him's Volume One yesterday. First listen? It's super cute. Zooey's voice is adorable and like dayln03 said, some of the tracks remind me of Pushing Daisies. God, I love that show. I want it on DVD now but it doesn't come out until September? Boo. /off topic

Speaking of Zooey's voice. Does anybody remember the Sundance awards one year she and Jake Gyllenhaal sung a really tasteless but also awesome opening song? Babies in trashcans or something? I would love to see that again, even if it meant that it would prove to be less awesome than I remember.

→ Also obtained Coldplay's Viva la Vida. I'm really really liking a lot of these tracks. Then again I always like their stuff. But I find this especially catchy and happy inducing. Maybe it really will bring about world peace? Yeah, that's what happens when you read Spin magazine at work.

→ Passchendaele. I want to see it. Paul Gross looking better than ever? Caroline Dhavernas looking like she's doing a wonderful job in a role that looks light years away from Jaye? What is not to like?

We can only hope!

Yep, it's cut short, but maybe if you hunt around some more the longer version may be up somewehre. I dunno, sorry.

See, I had this all worked out in my head. Zooey should have gone to be Chuck and then Caroline Dhavernas should have been in Tin Man (can you imagine? Zooey's delightful whimsy with her dash of morbidity in PD and CD's sharp wit in Tin Man). And Anna Friel could go back to being British. See, it all works out perfectly.

Wow, do I sense some hostility there towards miss Friel? Hahaha.

Oh no, don't say sorry. I've searched and searched for that thing in the past and hadn't been able to find even a mention of it let alone a clip. This is very good!

Maybe possibly. I mainly just dislike Chuck (Olive >>>> Chuck) but also Friel's portrayal of her feels off to me. And the accent thing bugs.

Awww. I love BOTH Olive and Chuck. Can't we all just get along?

Which part of the accent? You think she does it poorly? Or just the fact that she has to cover her accent at all?
